7th Anniversary Trip

If you're going to celebrate your anniversary, where else would you go other than
Luckenbach, TX and get back to the basics. Insert Willie and Waylon here.

Yes dear, I DO really need a custom engraved leather holster.

Trip back home and other stuff

We drove back to LA a couple of weekends ago, so Aubin's Dad could participate in his fantasy football draft. Amanda and Aubin went to MS afterwards and spent a week there.

This is actually after getting back from the trip. Although I can't recall what, Aubin was telling me something really important here. Probably more jelly, less biscuit.

An early Birthday present!

So, Aubin doesn't turn 2 for another 19 days, however when saw that our neighbor's were selling this Disney princess kitchen for $20, equipped with food and dishes, we decided that she deserved her present early and we deserved a good deal. She loves it.

Yogurt Aubin, Princess Aubin, Mohawk Aubin

This is why we eat yogurt from a cup . . . . . on a plate.

Making her own music, at least in her mind, while hiding in the closet, in a princess outfit.
